	Abstract = {Abstract.~~We present here a method for selecting optical patterns in a passive semiconductor microresonator, by using a spatial perturbation. A pattern is spontaneously generated in the system, and a switching beam causes this pattern to rotate even if the power in the switching beam is much lower than the power in the pattern. Thus, an all optical switch is realized, that operates at low light levels.   },

	Abstract = {Recently it was demonstrated that in atomic vapors weak control beams can manipulate (or switch) the propagation direction of strong light beams [Dawes et al., Science 308, 672 (2005)]. As a semiconductor analog of such all-optical switching, we present a proposal for similar manipulation and switching in planar semiconductor microcavities. Using a microscopic many-particle theory, we investigate the spatio-temporal dynamics of four-wave mixing signals and related instabilities in these systems. Even though the underlying physical processes are different from atomic systems, we find that microcavities allow for reversible directional manipulation of light.

The results are then compared with the power-length characteristics of CMOS digital devices. The general conclusion is that photonic signal processing technologies demand significantly larger space and/or power than CMOS technologies.},

@article{Dawes_2005aa,
	Abstract = {We report on an all-optical switch that operates at low light levels. It consists of laser beams counterpropagating through a warm rubidium vapor that induce an off-axis optical pattern. A switching laser beam causes this pattern to rotate even when the power in the switching beam is much lower than the power in the pattern. The observed switching energy density is very low, suggesting that the switch might operate at the single-photon level with system optimization. This approach opens the possibility of realizing a single-photon switch for quantum information networks and for improving transparent optical telecommunication networks.
